Chapter 218 193. Weapons and Tools
Just as Sidwell was preparing to give her foolish master a dire warning to retract her decision, she had yet to speak up when she saw her master turn her head to look at her.

"Do you know what these Giant God-Warriors are for?"
Dorothy asked this.
"They are obviously for war machines, of course," Miss Moon Rabbit swallowed the warnings she had on the tip of her tongue and responded. "They are so intricate and powerful, they must be born for the battlefield."
The Moon Rabbit Race had always been renowned for their Magic Guided Technology, and the Knights of the Moon's combat style was often a combination of Martial Arts and Magic Guided Technology—a set of Mana Battle Armor, a Magic Light Sword, and Mana Firearms were the standard equipment of the Knights of the Moon.
The Knights of the Moon were very skilled in using these Magic Guided Technologies to fight, and they were known among the tribes for their excellent gunfighting techniques.
However, such strength was more than sufficient for self-defense in the past, but it appeared somewhat insufficient for offensive maneuvers when attempting to develop new worlds.
For this reason, the Priestesses of the Moon had been developing some large-scale war weapons for years.
Among them, the vast humanoid Mana construct Mechas were an important project; although, from a practical combat point of view, it wasn't a good idea to make war machinery humanoid—tanks or beast forms were actually more practical.
But tanks couldn't utilize the Knights of the Moon's Martial Arts, so to apply Martial Arts to those giant war machines required high agility from the war machines.
The Priestesses of the Moon unanimously agreed that the most suitable war weapon for the Knights of the Moon would be giant humanoid Mechanical Battle Armors with agility similar to the Moon Rabbit's body.
Well, if possible, it would be best if that Battle Armor could switch between tank form and humanoid form.
Unfortunately, the Priestesses of the Moon's development of such transforming humanoid Mechanical Battle Armors was still only on paper. Their existing technology couldn't achieve making those bulky giant Mechanical Battle Armors as flexible as the human body, and even if they managed to overcome the hurdle of agility, they also couldn't create a control system that could utilize this flexibility.
But Sidwell never expected that this trip to the Witch World would bring an unexpected surprise. She discovered these Giant God-Warriors in a specialty store in the Golden Country, and they perfectly met all the requirements of the transforming giant Mechanical Battle Armors they had envisioned.
They had incredibly hard defensive power and huge strength that matched their size.
They could freely switch between humanoid form and various all-terrain vehicle forms.
They supported mind control, allowing the mech's movements to stay in complete sync with the pilot.
The most important point was that they were incredibly agile, even more so than the human body, capable of easily performing movements that a human body couldn't.
This was simply tailor-made equipment for the Knights of the Moon.
Although it was unclear why these highly complex Giant God-Warriors didn't come equipped with Mana Weapons that matched their performance and only had some decorative retro swords, this was not a big issue. The Moon Rabbits excelled in making various Mana Cannons, so they could just match these Giant God-Warriors with a Mana Magnetic Storm Battle Cutter or a Mana Bomb Gun themselves.
If possible, Sidwell really didn't want to cancel this order; she truly had a deep love for this batch of Giant God-Warriors.
"Cough cough, you really misunderstood. This batch of Giant God-Warriors is actually for engineering machinery. Although they can indeed be used as War Mechs, their initial design purpose was for civil engineering."
Seeing that Miss Moon Rabbit had completely taken the bait and misunderstood the function of these Giant God-Warriors, Dorothy had to explain with some embarrassment.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, my Queen, I am a professional in matters of combat, a warrior cannot possibly mistake weapons for tools," Sidwell expressed her disbelief towards her incompetent master's words.

"You see, they are so sturdy and possess such great strength, surely that is for better protection and destroying enemies on the battlefield, isn't it?"
She pointed at the Giant God-Warriors as she spoke.
"Cough cough, they're sturdy because construction site safety has become stricter over the past two years, even construction helmets have to be equipped with Six Rings Shield Spells as a minimum, and requirements for this kind of giant engineering machinery are even more stringent, hence the installation of the Nine Rings Positional Shield Technique. That way, even if an entire mountain fell on them, the driver's life would be safe."
Dorothy scratched her head and explained patiently.
"As for the strength, these are, after all, pieces of engineering machinery designed to transport all kinds of building materials; without strength, they wouldn't be up to the task. That's why the arm structure includes nine streams of the Great Dragon's Power and Giant Elephant's Power, enabling their maximum output to achieve the Ninefold Dragon and Elephant Strength.
"Uh..."
Miss Moon Rabbit initially thought it made some sense, but she quickly became skeptical again.
"What about the transmigration ability, and the fact there are various types of combat vehicles for land, sea, and air? Surely that is for handling all sorts of complex terrains on the battlefield, right?"
"Cough cough, battlefield terrain is actually pretty standard, you haven't been to a construction site. The tricky terrain of those construction sites is truly complex. Have you ever built a railway on the summit of a snow mountain, or constructed a tunnel under the deep sea?
"To better transport materials to such hostile environments, there are very high demands for the environmental adaptability of engineering vehicles. That's why templates for all kinds of transport vehicles were created."
Dorothy once again explained patiently.
"So why install high-precision thought control systems on engineering machinery? That's some high-level stuff, clearly a military technology, right?"
Sidwell still refused to accept reality.
"That is indeed military technology, but it's no longer cutting-edge. It was just approved for civilian use. The design brief for these Giant God-Warriors is for high-end luxury home construction; you have to understand that rich folk have very high demands for the details of their luxury homes. So, to allow for fine and precise manipulations, to sculpt various artistic murals and such, they installed this thought control system."
"Similarly, the structure of the Giant God-Warriors, more precise and flexible than the human body, is also for the convenience of the old architects to perform detailed work, ensuring they can bring out their best craftsmanship. The goal is to make sure the final architectural product is a piece of soulful art, not just a modern industrial creation. You have no idea how troublesome those Soul Eater Soul Party people can be, demanding everything to be handmade."
The homebody witch was also grumbling as she had been learning more about architecture from Spider Teacher, she realized that no matter the world, the demands of those who wanted to break through the armor were always just as numerous.
Sidwell: "...."
Having been rebutted by her slacker Master, Miss Moon Rabbit fell silent. She looked at the tall, imposing giant humanoid machinery in the hall and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"So, my last question, why do you understand so much about these Giant God-Warriors?"
She asked in a faint voice.
"Because they were made by my teacher."
Seeing that Miss Moon Rabbit had finally asked this, Dorothy just shrugged her shoulders and didn't lie.
"Oh, I suppose I haven't introduced myself properly either. I'm Dorothy, a freshman majoring in Automated Mechanical Civil Engineering at Brust Academy, a little witch who is making continuous efforts to become a real estate magnate in the Witch World."
"So, since you, Sidwell, have chosen to follow me, let's go get covered in dust at the construction site. There's really no need to return these Giant God-Warriors; they will definitely be useful in our upcoming projects."
...The little witch's self-introduction...
